A public criminal prosecution was initiated against the 18-year-old twin brothers Davit and Mikael Minasyan in connection with the incident that took place in the Saint Anna Church.

In particular, Davit Minasyan a public criminal prosecution has been initiated against him under Article 297, Part 1 (hooliganism) and Article 452, Part 3 (interfering with the legal service or political activities of an official) of the Criminal Code, Mikael Minasyanwas charged under Article 46-297, Part 1 (supporting hooliganism) and Article 46-452, Part 3 (supporting interference with the legitimate official or political activities of an official).

At the time of writing the article, it was already known that one of the brothers, Mikayel Minasyan, was released, as a preventive measure, the ban on absence was chosen. And a petition was submitted to arrest the other brother, Davit Minasyan.

As for what kind of political activity Nikol Pashinyan, who entered the church with bodyguards in the middle of the Palm Sunday service, should have carried out in the church, let’s leave it to the experts, instead, let’s try to understand what could be the reason for this “revenge” against young people, 18-19 years old, especially when, for example, human rights activist Zhanna Aleksanyan urged Pashinyan to choose the following path, stating:

“Nikol Pashinyan, release the school boys. First of all, you caused inconvenience to the faithful and praying people with your late and unannounced visit to the liturgy, and for that it was worth apologizing to the people, as in the case of the subway incident. And again similar to the subway incident invite the boys to you and have a fatherly conversation with them, personally make sure if they really wanted to hit you or not. Maybe you will have an opportunity to give explanations and exclude the repetition of such incidents. unless, of course, you want to exclude it.”

Of course, there will be people who will say that you should respect the state institution, the head of the country, no matter what. Yes, and the head of that same country, regardless of his attitude towards His Holiness, did he respect him, does he respect him when he calls him Kutrich Nersisyan, does he respect the army as an important institution, of course not. Was it respect when the entrance of the Catholicos of All Armenians to the Sardarapat Memorial was blocked by a police wall? And is it respect for the church, the people, God, when the liturgy is “interrupted” by political or service activities? We have always been and are zealous to respect the state institution, for example, the official of the Minister of Defense the status, the position of the military and spiritual authorities, as well as the laws of the Republic of Armenia, the requirements of the constitution, which are so often belittled and disrespected by the country’s leadership and government representatives.

Anyway, let’s assume that the boys are guilty, couldn’t Nikol Pashinyan, who was in a panic, follow the advice of human rights activist Zhanna Aleksanyan, having the following lines of the Lord’s prayer “Our Father” under his eyes? “And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.”

Would Pashinyan wish that God would be as “fair” to his greatest and most serious sins as he is to these guys and his opponents?

First of all, it is necessary to understand what kind of political activity Pashinyan, accusing the church of interfering in political processes, tried to implement, which was hindered by 18-year-old boys. And Pashinyan should be more than “forgiving” towards boys aged 18-20, and in this case, try to find out the extent of his moral rights. But more on that later. And now, why does Pashinyan hate especially young people aged 18-20?

168.amin a conversation with Gegham Manukyan, deputy of the Armenia faction of the National Assembly, said:

“In 2018, Nikol Pashinyan made schoolchildren one of his supports, and the 18-year-olds who graduated from public school that year were in the service in 2020. And many of those mandatory soldiers or conscripts died. And these days it is already the third case when minors become the victims of censure of this government because of their attitude and behavior, and the petition for arrest and the special election of Mnatsakan Martirosyan as a judge to examine it shows that Pashinyan’s censure is at an end. Lawyer Ruben Melikyan revealed another scandalous case today, that’s just a boy They are trying to detain him on the charge of hooliganism for his position and opinion.”said the opposition MP.

In this context, let’s return to Pashinyan’s moral right to judge young people aged 18-20, when that young man is not a murderer, not a dangerous criminal, and has become a hero of the “political stampede” independently of his will. In the 44-day war, several thousand conscripts, including those who served for several months, died. And this despite the fact that in April 2022, Nikol Pashinyan announced in the National Assembly: “yes, the war could have been prevented and we would have had the same result, but without the casualties.” In other words, it was possible to prevent them from being killed, but they were killed, as Anna Hakobyan once said: “we lost 4000 davids” and the main reason was not what Hakobyan presented, but what Pashinyan admitted.

Soldiers aged 18-20 fought heroically during the 44-day war, as well as the aggression against Artsakh in September 2023, and deserters should be looked for elsewhere.

It should be noted that after Pashinyan’s above-mentioned confession, among the relatives of those killed in the 44-day war of 2020 were a requirement transfer at that time to the General Prosecutor Artur Davtyan, so that Nikol Pashinyan could be involved as an accused in the criminal case related to the 44-day period and summoned for questioning. According to various reports, he as a witness: was questioned During the 44-day war, a group of high-ranking Armenian officials committed a crime of abusing their official powers within the framework of the criminal proceedings.

Months ago, Pashinyan told journalists that in one case was interrogated for about 5 hours: “my actions have been investigated, can be investigated again and will continue to be investigated»:

Let us add that former Prosecutor General Artur Davtyan had noted որ՝ “At that time, there was no evidence to initiate criminal proceedings against Nikol Pashinyan.”

The other day, it became known that Pashinyan was charged with treason and deliberate victimization a report has been submitted. We think the result under the current government is quite predictable.

And Nikol Pashinyan is indebted to the 18-20 year olds and not only for saving his own son’s life in the 44-day war, who was not even injured (of course, we are happy, he is young). And in 2020 During the 44-day period, Pashinyan’s son, among the soldiers of the military unit formed during martial law died 21 people.

In response to the claims of Arman Tatoyan, head of the “Wings of Unity” political initiative, about Azerbaijani advances, the RA Ministry of Defense disclaimer was distributed, in which, in particular, it is mentioned.

“The connection of Google Earth space photos with reality has deviations, and the above boundary line has no legal basis. The RA Armed Forces General Directorate is guided by topographical maps of the USSR of 1975, which have legal force and were approved by the head of the Transcaucasus territorial inspection of the State Geodetic Control.

In addition to this, the Ministry of Defense announced through the spokesperson.

“Azerbaijan’s position does not cross the state border and is located in the territory of the Republic of Armenia.  There are concerns that the said location may pose a threat to the Sotk mine, Kut settlement and surrounding areas. It should be noted that the distance from the mentioned location to the Sotk mine is about 4 km, and the distance to the Kut settlement is 6.4 km. Furthermore, visibility is not possible between the settlement of Kut and the indicated position because of the presence of Mount Katar.

Arman Tatoyan, head of the “Wings of Unity” political initiative, which submitted an application for participation in the NA elections, today, March 25, at the meeting with journalists, during which he presented their security plan, also referred to the denial of the Ministry of Defense.

“After the press conference, we sent a letter to the person holding the position of the Minister of Defense with the coordinates that we received through satellite photos. We did a study that lasted several months, as a result of which, with the help of Chinese and French satellites, through their photos, we discovered that there were both invasions and strengthening of positions in the territory of Armenia starting from July 2025.

Here, the Ministry of Defense clearly lied and manipulated the issue, focusing it entirely on one position. In fact, they lied there too, because according to our calculations, we have up to 3000 square meters of encroachment there, which is equal to about 9 hectares.

We gave them precise coordinates, both from Chinese and French satellites. And it is based on the results of these satellites that the Google map is formed. They started to manipulate with their lies that we took it from Google map, it is not so, we took it from satellites, based on which the Google map is also formed,” explained Arman Tatoyan, emphasizing that they are speaking with facts, and the statements of the RA Ministry of Defense and Nikol Pashinyan that their facts are lies clearly helped Azerbaijan.

“You are the minister of defense of the country, or the prime minister of the country, how can you say that such things are lies when satellite photos prove it? This means that you clean up Azerbaijan, you clean up Azerbaijan in front of the eyes of other countries and you don’t allow their invasions to be seen,” said Arman Tatoyan.
